Tickets for DANCE MOViES at EMPAC
Band, on the run.
Drawing's closed. Winner's been notified.
This Saturday EMPAC will be debuting the results of its most recent DANCE MOViES commissions, which are films that somehow involve dance. For example, here's the description for one of the works, called "Fanfare for Marching Band":
A film following the mayhem created by a ragtag musical militia that embarks on an impotent invasion through a parallel universe, where their exuberant music is out of sync and unheard. The two worlds are finally unified when the band masters the tempo and patience of empathy.
The band -- Mucca Paza -- will also be there to play afterward.
So, not something you see every day. And we have a pair of tickets to give away. To enter the drawing, please answer this question in the comments:
What's your favorite dance or type of dancing?
This could be anything: swing, hip hop, the Snoopy, the Carlton, whatever.
Four films are on the slate for Saturday, none longer than 20 minutes. The screening starts at 7 pm. Tickets are $6.
Important: All comments must be submitted by 10 am on Thursday (November 3, 2011) to be entered in the drawing. You must answer the question to be part of the drawing. One entry per person, please. You must enter a valid email address (that you check regularly -- seriously, if you win, we want to give you the tickets) with your comment. The winner will be notified via email by 5 pm on Thursday and must respond by 10 am Friday (November 4).

Krumping -- powerful and expressive. Something I will never be able to do. Except in my own living room of course.

Contemporary Dance and some Hip Hop is among my favorite
(Love what the choreographers do on the show "So You Think You Can Dance")
